Yet another drabble for Secrets & Lies. This one's from Mike Newton's POV, which I thought would be a great chance for us to see how er, deep and meaningful, Mike can really be. Or something. Please review!!
Each and Every Time
The first time Bella turned him down, she said she was busy.
The second time, she was going out with friends. The fact that she actually had gone out with friends didn't prove anything.
One time, Bella had smiled, "I've got so much homework to catch up on, you understand, Mike?"
He didn't understand.
After mulling over it for weeks, for months, after asking her almost every Friday if she'd like to go out, Mike really didn't understand what he was doing.
Why would he want to go out with a girl who lied to him?
Nothing happened after that.
